Vikings WR Stefon Diggs looks to hit 1,000-yard mark on season

Stefon Diggs is closing in on the 1,000-yard milestone for the 2016 season, and would be the first Vikings receiver to hit the mark since Sidney Rice did so in 2009 with Brett Favre at quarterback.

Diggs sits at 806 receiving yards after 14 weeks, and would need to average about 65 yards per game to to clear the 1,000-yard mark. The Vikings have two rather generous passing defenses coming up in the Indianapolis Colts (28th in the NFL), Green Bay Packers (18th) and Chicago Bears, who are much better ranking sixth in the NFL.

Diggs has had much success as Sam Bradford’s favorite target this season, and has had some pretty historic games this season. It will be something to watch for as the Vikings make their final playoff push with just three games remaining.
